Hogwarts: I know a million points of black magic

Chapter 85 Wanske: "Am I a Squib?"

Just when all the freshmen were panicking, an accident occurred in the room.

"Ghost!!!"

Accompanied by a scream, all the new students turned their attention to the child who screamed first.

A few white ghosts were slowly extending their arms from the wall. These pearly white, translucent ghosts, whispering as they slid across the room, paid little attention to the first-year students.They seem to be arguing about something.A chubby little friar-like ghost said: "Forgive, forget, I say, we should give him another chance."

Unlike other frightened freshmen, Lester looked at these ghosts with some curiosity, after all, they were so different from normal people.

Dead but still alive, which makes Lester very interested in them, perhaps this is another form of immortality.

"Move forward now," said a shrill voice, "the sorting ceremony is about to begin."

Professor McGonagall is back.The ghosts floated, and the fish disappeared through the opposite wall.

"Now, stand in single file," Professor McGonagall said to the first-years, "and follow me."

Hearing Professor McGonagall's words, all the freshmen started to move, silently lined up in a row according to their previous positions, and obediently followed behind Professor McGonagall.

Lester stood at the end of the line, casually surveying the surrounding scene until he passed through a double door and entered a luxurious auditorium.

Students from other grades of the college were already sitting around four long tables, above which thousands of candles floating in mid-air illuminated the auditorium.Glittering gold plates and goblets stood on four tables.There is another long table on the upper stage of the auditorium, which is the teacher's seat.Professor McGonagall took the first-years over there, and lined them up facing all the seniors, with the teachers behind them.Candles flickered, and the hundreds of faces watching them looked like pale lanterns.The ghosts also shone with dim silver light among the students.

According to the plot, Hermione said without any surprise: "There is magic here, and it looks like the sky outside. I read about it in "Hogwarts: A School History."

"If nothing else, Hannah should be the first one."

Lester looked at the little girl in front of him, thinking about the plot in the original book.

"No, it should be the Sorting Hat singing"

Sure enough, just as Lester thought about it, there was a sound like a broken gong resounding in the auditorium.

There was a twist of the hat, a wide slit opened like a mouth—and the hat began to sing:
You may think I'm not pretty,
But don't judge a book by its cover,
If you can find a more beautiful hat than mine,
I can eat myself.

You can make your bowler hats black and shiny,

Make your top hats smooth and crisp,

I'm the Sorting Hat at Hogwarts,
Naturally, it is much taller than your hats.

any thought hidden in your mind,

Can't hide from the golden eyes of the Sorting Hat,

Try it on, and I'll tell you,
Which college should you go to.

You may belong to Gryffindor,
There is courage buried in the bottom of my heart,
Their courage, boldness and chivalry,

Make Gryffindor stand out;
You may belong to Hufflepuff,
The people there are upright and faithful,

Hufflepuffs are stoic and honest,

Not afraid of hard work;

If you're smart,
Into wise old Ravenclaw, perhaps,
Those who are wise and learned,

Will always meet their fellows there;

Maybe you'll be in Slytherin,
Make sincere friends here,

But those cunning and insidious will stop at nothing,
to achieve their goals.

Come put on me!Don't be afraid!
Never panic!

in my hand (although i don't even have a hand)
you are absolutely safe

Because I am a thinking magic hat!
After the hat sang, the audience applauded thunderously.The Hat bowed to each of the four tables and then remained still.

Witnessing this very classic scene, Lester couldn't calm down for a long time.To be honest, he can be regarded as someone who has seen the world, but it is really the first time he has seen the hat singing.

Then Professor McGonagall took a few steps forward, a roll of parchment in hand.

"Whoever name I call now puts on a hat, sits on a stool, and waits for the sorting," she said. "Hannah Abbott!"

"Sure enough, the iron Hannah, the flowing Sorting Hat"

A moment later a rosy-cheeked little girl with two blond braids staggered out of the queue and put on her hat, which just covered her eyes.She sat down.momentary pause

"Hufflepuff!!!"

The hat opened its mouth and shouted loudly, and immediately there was a burst of cheers. The little girl had never seen such a scene before, and immediately blushed and ran down in small steps.

As soon as she walked to Hufflepuff's long dining table, Hannah was immediately surrounded by enthusiastic seniors, telling her about the benefits of Hufflepuff.

After Hannah was selected, several children were assigned to the other three colleges.

"Hermione Granger"

"Gryffindor!"

Hearing that she was assigned to Gryffindor, Hermione showed her two big teeth in satisfaction, and walked to Gryffindor with a smile.

"Draco Malfoy!"

When Malfoy's name was called, Malfoy swaggered over and got it right away, screaming "Slytherin!" almost as soon as the hat touched his head.

Malfoy went to join his friends Crabbe and Goyle, looking very pleased with himself.

"Vansk!"

Soon, the yellow-haired Wanske also swung his golden hair and put on his hat swaggeringly.

hat:"."

Seeing that the hat didn't immediately read out which college he should be assigned to, Wanske was a little dazed and asked, "Broken hat, what are you still doing, why don't you assign me a college?"

Sensing that the people around him were looking at him more and more strangely, Wanske was very dissatisfied, thinking that this hater hating the rich was messing with his mentality.

"Brother, brother, I have something to tell you, don't be impulsive"

Hat carefully considered his words, and said, "If I can't sort you now, and let you pack it up and go home, will you beat me to death?"

Wansker: "."

"Forget it, it's all here." Seeing Wanske's collapsed face, the hat was helpless, and shouted: "Hufflepuff!!!"

"Okay, boy, you can go down"

The hat spoke softly, for fear that his words would irritate Wanske.

Although the hat's words were very euphemistic, Wanske still understood the meaning of the hat.

"Is he a squib?"
